Reading time ( words)

This webinar serves as an introduction to two-component (2K) coating systems and the overall benefits that are achievable.

Watch & Learn! Final Installment of I-007e Micro Webinar Series Features 2k Coating Systems

In this engaging, 12-part webinar series, Kinner examines conformal coating chemistries in further detail, including their properties, applications, issues to be mindful of, and the processes you should follow to achieve a successful coating outcome. The entire “Coatings Uncoated!” webinar series can be viewed in an hour and covers a comprehensive range of hot topics and application-relevant case-study overviews, as well as back-to-basic subject matter and issues, such as condensation and contamination. Most of the 12 segments can be viewed in five minutes or less.

The twelfth and final episode of the “Coatings Uncoated!” series is now available to view. In “The Next Generation: 2k Conformal Coatings,” topic expert Phil Kinner from Electrolube examines how these coatings differ from the more traditional options, such as how they perform like a resin and behave like a coating. If you are in the assembly business, an EMS company, or responsible for specifying conformal coating and/or encapsulation, then this free series is for you.

Watch “The Next Generation: 2k Conformal Coatings,” in under 5 minutes! The previous segments of “Coatings, Uncoated!” are also available to watch free.

SMTA Europe’s Electronics in Harsh Environments Conference has become a must-attend annual event; unfortunately, it also became another casualty of the COVID-19 lockdown. Scheduled to take place in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, from April 21–23, 2020, it has now been postponed until December 1–3. Pete Starkey reports on a preview seminar presented by SMTA Europe.
